Ah, thanks, guys. I think that portage is approximately equal to yum in the PITA dept. With yum I was always having to hunt down new repositories, and periodically it'd fail for dependancy reasons. Portage is much easier to use, until something which is "needed" has to unmasked. Interesting, though :) -Thufir -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
